We look at the division of 214856 by 45 
We're looking to find how many times 45 goes into 214856.

On to step 1:
The number 45 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 45

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 45, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 21 to get 21.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 214 / 45

Step 3:
When dividing 214 by 45, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 180 from 214 and we're left with 34.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 348 / 45

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 348 by 45, we get 7 and a remainder of 33.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47.0
Deduct 315 from 348 and we're left with 33.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 335 / 45

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 335 by 45, we get 7 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 477.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 315 from 335.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 206 / 45

On to step 6:
The number 45 fits into 206 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4774.0
Deduct 180 from 206 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
45 goes into 260 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4774.5
Deduct 225 from 260 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
350 divided by 45 is 7 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4774.57
Deduct 315 from 350 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 45 fits into 350 7 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4774.577
If we take 315 away from 350, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4774.577 and a remainder of 0.0035.
